Independent voters rule Michigan

What’s a purple state? It's a state where independent voters rule the day. Mitchell predicts it will be independent voters that put Michigan in the win column for either candidate.

The telephone poll was a sample of 750 likely voters statewide. Where does Romney really need to get to work if he's going to flip what was assumed to be a safe state for President Obama? Mitchell says out-state. The margin there has Romney at 47 percent to Obama’s 45 percent.

-- Mitt Romney has spent the week campaigning in Michigan, in places such as DeWitt.
